03

Student accommodation

The Nautilus finish is specifically identified for student accommodation.

Young sleepers

PVC waterproof is presented as a practical first-mattress option.

Each format can be specified with 13.5G Bonnell, 12.5G Bonnell or pocket springs, with customisation available.

SPECIFICATION FLEXIBILITY

Start with the mattress. Add the right contract finish.
